2036: Virtual Reality Social Distancing becomes a thing, where people attend virtual parties by sending holographic avatars, ensuring they’re “virtually” present without the need to physically mingle. Emoji dance-offs are all the rage!

2037: The “Mind-Meets-Code” era begins, allowing developers to write code directly with their thoughts. Unfortunately, this leads to a surge in “accidental” code commits when programmers have random thoughts about pizza while coding.

Nah things are going fast, 2040-2050
